The sleazy New York Democrats, and their now disgraced (and run out of town) A.G. Eric Schneiderman, are doing everything they can to sue me on a foundation that took in $18,800,000 and gave out to charity more money than it took in, $19,200,000. I won’t settle this case!…

Expectations of a probe into President Donald Trump’s claims of raising over $19.2 million for the Donald J. Trump Foundation is sure to take place. More information will be released as more pleadings are filed by Barbara Underwood and the New York attorney general’s office.

….Schneiderman, who ran the Clinton campaign in New York, never had the guts to bring this ridiculous case, which lingered in their office for almost 2 years. Now he resigned his office in disgrace, and his disciples brought it when we would not settle.
